mostly, they don't. they run up and down the sidelines with a 300/2.8 or a
400/2.8 on a monopod and another body with a 70-200/2.8 since they are a
better focal length for typical news coverage of American football. there
have been a couple of articles in Pop Photo and Shutterbug recently on
various types of specialized photographers do. pro photographers of American
football was covered by both. www.robgalbraith.com might be useful.

Subject: Another Question on Big Bertha
What sort of head do sports photographers use when they put their 600/4s
on a monopod and run up and down the sidelines? In addition to a good
tripod, I'd like to have the option to use Big Bertha on a monopod.
